Ralph and I have an opportunity to go up to Alaska with our friends, Tim and Chris Johnson, June 8th-16th. Chris grew up in Waterloo and Travaille's were their family friends as well as Pastor and wife. The Johnson's invited us to go with them on Saturday evening, then during the night, their son in law had to have emergency hernia surgery. He has an unusual condition that effects the elasticity of his skin. When he is opened up his organs are kind of in a jumble. Anyway, Ben, cannot work on his own home while we are up there so Ralph and I will be doing some physical labor to help them out.
Mark and Lois Ann are returning from Washington on the 11th when we will be there. We hope to make arrangements to visit Mark and Lois, too. We can only afford this trip on such short notice because Tim works for NWAirlines and we can fly standby with them and Tim is so appreciative to have help that he is also helping us out.
I'll will try to get my name and password information cleared up at a later time. Thanks, Dan.
Here is the moving van with their car that John and a friend drove up. He arrived on Sunday, July 19. I think they made record time after dropping off Heidi at the airport in Seattle.
They are working with Young Life up here on the Kenai Peninsula. For 3 weeks they stayed at Christoffers house while i worked on the bathroom etc. at the cabin to get it ready to live in.
